Complaints handling and LGBTI older people’s rights under the new Aged Care Act

12 May @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm
$20

Event delivered by LGBTIQ+ Health Australia. The Aged Care Quality and Safety Commission presents on the Commission’s role, the grounds the older people or the representatives can bring complaints, how it approaches complaints, and information it can share on the issues and complaints relating to LGBTI people’s experience.

This discussion will include reflections on what the Commission sees as priority issues in realising the rights of LGBTI older people, what the collected data reveals about the experiences of LGBTI older people, and future planned LGBTI-related data collection.

Following the presentation, members of LHA’s Silver Pride Advocacy Network, Living Experience Advocacy Panel will provide reflections grounded in lived experience. Their insights will open space for a broader discussion on what services, systems, and policies must do to ensure dignity, safety, and inclusion for LGBTI+ people in aged care.

Registration $20 or free for LGBTIQ+ Health Australia members
